Cork await GAC verdict on incidents in Kerry clash

GAC officials will conclude their investigations into the ill-tempered NFL tie between Kerry and Cork tomorrow night.

The game, which was won by the hosts in Austin Stack Park on February 7, produced two controversial incidents. Cork forward Padraig Griffin received a straight red card for an off-the-ball incident late in the first-half while Kerry's Paul Galvin required a visit to hospital following an altercation with a Cork player after the final whistle.

At Cork's request under a recently passed rule the GAC agreed to review the first incident, which led to Griffin being red-carded after referee Michael Ryan from Limerick consulted with his umpires.
